Leading and influencing when you don't manage anyone

Much of professional services work means getting things done through people you don't manage: academics, colleagues in other teams, committees and senior staff. Many staff lead projects, coordinate change and advise decision-makers long before they have a team of their own.

This two hour workshop is for professional services staff who need to lead and influence without line management responsibility. It covers where your influence comes from when it isn't your job title, how to build working relationships across the academic and professional services divide, how to move a proposal through a committee or a senior colleague, and how to lead a piece of work with people who don't report to you.

Attendees will leave with:

A map of the people they need to influence, and where their own credibility comes from

A plan for one piece of work they need to move forward without formal authority

Practical approaches for committees, senior colleagues and cross-team projects
